Recent work
Impact Hub Bradford
With support from Power To Change, I worked with Impact Hub Bradford over a six month period to support their staff in exploring where they are best placed as an organisation to respond to the climate crisis.
In line with my Understand, Imagine, Act theory of change, I began by running a series of workshops with staff to help them to understand the climate crisis.
I then worked with them to creatively imagine what their response to the climate crisis could look like. We then worked together to come up with a series of actions focused on where they could make most of a difference in Bradford and beyond.
The Performance Ensemble
I recently worked with The Performance Ensemble to help both their Board and their performers to better understand the climate crisis - and what they’re best placed to do in response.
I first of all facilitated a Climate Fresk workshop for Ensemble members - to help them to explore ideas around where they were best placed to act in response to the climate emergency.
I then undertook a review of their current approach to managing their environmental impacts - presenting them with an action plan. This plan was based around actions they could take as an organisation - and ideas around their important role in community engagement.
Fruit Works Cooperative
I facilitated three workshops with local fruit growing co-operative Fruit Works - to help them to co-produce a refreshed marketing plan. I took a broad view of marketing - inviting them to consider marketing as building relationships with customers.
Starting with this definition works particularly well with social enterprises - where relationship building sits well with their social mission.
We explored the 4 P’s of marketing - inviting them to think about themes such as their product range and pricing, as well as their promotional activities such as social media.
Through the workshops I helped Fruit Works to come up with an action plan for continuing to improve their approach to marketing - increasing their impact and generating further income.
